Pakistan have recalled former captain Shahid Afridi for a one-day series in West Indies but senior players Imran Farhat, Shoaib Malik and Kamran Akmal have been dropped for poor displays in last month’s Champions Trophy.
Ahmed Shahzad and Umar Akmal were also recalled and Pakistan included uncapped Haris Sohail, Zulfiqar Babar and wicketkeeper Rizwan Ahmed in the ODI and T20 squads. Pakistan play five ODIs and two T20 matches on the tour this month.
‘We have started our rebuilding process keeping the 2015 World Cup in mind,’ chief selector Iqbal Qasim said on Wednesday.
